Take Control of Yourself, Please novel (Anna and Liam) novel Chapter 226

Liam left.

Anna sat at the dining table alone. Her heart filled up with joy as she enjoyed the steak Liam personally cooked for her.

He was truly a perfect man.

A man pampered by god himself-he was handsome, rich, and tall; he was dependable, calm, and reserved. 0 n top of all that, he knew how to cook!

How could a man be so perfect?

Whoever he would eventually fall for would become the happiest woman on earth!

Anna suddenly clenched her fork and knife tightly. A look of determination appeared in her eyes.

"I really want this man!"

Even so, her spirits only remained high for a few seconds. Her confidence dwindled soon after.

"Ah, he's so perfect. Why would he fall for a woman like me!"

Just then, Nina came back.

"Anna, why didn’t you go to the restaurant for lunch? Everyone was there except for you! They were all talking about how horrible things must be for you that you can’t even eat lunch.”

Anna nodded silently. "I have successfully achieved negative thirty marks now!"

"What! Your marks were deducted again?"

Nina glanced at the 'six dishes and a soup' on the table. She widened her eyes in shock. "My god! What are these! Are these the things you cooked for Mr. Ackman? No wonder he deducted your marks again! I n fact, he should have deducted more!"

Vexed, Anna scratched her head. "What now? Scrambled eggs are already the best I can do!"

Nina picked up a fork and took a bite of her eggs. She immediately spat them out.

“Has Mr. Ackman eaten these?"

Anna shook her head.

"Good! Otherwise, he'll deduce a hundred marks from you!"

"Is it that bad?" Anna tried a bite of it too and instantly spat it out. "It really is horrible!"

"But Anna, what are you eating?” Nina gazed at the tiny piece of steak left on the plate in front of Anna.

Anna blushed. She stuck out her tongue and said, "It's a steak cooked by Mr. Ackman. It's super tasty."

Before Anna could react, Nina had stuffed the last piece of the steak into her mouth.

"Wow! It really is delicious!" Nina stuck her thumbs u p. "I admire Mr. Ackman even more now! Anna, he's truly a perfect man whose kind has gone extinct! He even knows how to cook."

Anna nodded. "He's not bad, indeed."

"Anna, I am optimistic about you two. Good luck!” Nina cheered for Anna.

Anna's dejection was evident on her face. "He's a man with no feelings of affection. In fact, he doesn't believe in love! Besides, if he were to fall for anyone, it would surely be a flawless and refined lady-not anyone of the likes of me."

"I disagree. For some reason, I always feel that although Mr. Ackman seems to harbor hostility toward you, he also gives you special treatment at the same time."

"No way!" Anna held her cheeks in her palms and hid away the pain in her eyes.

"It’s not like he cooked steak for me!”

"Enough! Let's get to work! This battleground has to be cleaned before he returns. Otherwise, he'll deduct my marks again," Anna stood up and started cleaning up the kitchen.

Nina stared into the garbage bin in the kitchen. It was filled with eggshells. She showed Anna a thumbs up." Soldier, have all the eggs in the fridge fall victim to you!" "Oh, no! There are no ingredients in the fridge anymore! We’re gonna be in trouble again if he asks for eight dishes and soup tonight!" Anna exclaimed.

"The one who's gonna be in trouble is you. Good luck, soldier," Nina smiled and said.

Anna was confused as to how she dirtied Director Wright's clothes by simply bumping into her.

Director Wright glared at Anna disdainfully. "These are limited edition clothes. They were brand new. I've just put it on and now you’ve dirtied it. Tell me, how will you compensate me for my loss."

That sounded like extortion!

Anna glanced at Director Wright’s clothes. They were clearly not limited edition. In fact, it was from an out-o f-season summer collection from last year!

If Anna was an ordinary employee, there would be a real chance of her falling for that bluff. Unfortunately, she was Anna of the Hamilton family—there were no limited edition pieces she had never seen before.

Anna smiled. "Director Wright, how would you like me to make up for it?"

"Pay me two hundred thousand dollars right now."

"Two hundred thousand? Your clothes couldn't have cost this much when you bought them, right? There's a n end-of-season clearance sale right now. Moreover, this is an outdated style. It shouldn't cost even fifty thousand!" Anna rebutted.

Jennifer hurriedly took the chance to add fuel to fire." Anna Hamilton, are you accusing the great Director Wright of wearing out-of-season clothing?"

"That’s not what I mean.” Anna shot a glance at Jennifer.

"Then, are you saying Director Wright is extorting you?"

"Why would Director Wright extort a measly hotel employee like me?" Anna was still trying her best to maintain her smile.

"I think that's exactly what you're saying!" Jennifer chided, "You'll get a complaint about slandering your guest like that!"

"That's right! I want to make a complaint about you! I don't need you to pay me back. I want to see your supervisor fire you right here right now!" Director Wright yelled furiously.

Jennifer almost burst out laughing when she saw Anna's dejected expression.

'Anna Hamilton, this time, it's over for you!'
